Yea, good backstory when they interviewed him on ABC, he was a dude that knew nothing about sports, and decided he could fill in because it because it was just read a teleprompter and it malfunctioned about 1 second into it. Someone was looking out for him and made him suffer, he's supposedly a successful reporter now. I wish or hope he trademarked that line; he'd be one of the richest people in the country.
This is what a sportscaster sounds like when he is told through the teleprompter that his family has been kidnapped and will die if he doesn't nail this segment.
GHOSTFACE SKRILLA whoa, I liked the comment as well, but to say hands down the best of all time is a bit much. However I dont know what other comments you have or have not read & you are entitled to your opinion.
Ha! I was in TV for 30 and ask to step in on a live show as moderator with a lousy prompter operator and a dead IFB from NCC..What a show..I feel his pain!
@@Jayson90210 I never thought teleprompters had to be operated. Wild that they haven’t found a computer to find the optimal scrolling time so it can be automatic
@@jm3245 Ha! I know right.. when he throws it back to the anchors is definitely the best part, but the best part of that part is his head movement no doubt about it! LOL. Good catch!
I don’t know how I came across this but as someone who’s done a lot of shameful shit in my life, oof, I couldn’t even get through this. I know it’s funny, haha, and he’s getting clowned in the comments, but this is the type of thing that could have destroyed any sort of confidence this man ever had, and I’m sure he’s carried the shame of this with him for a long time, and may still to this day. Hopefully he’s put this behind him and has moved on but fuck, this type of stuff can have a profound impact on your entire life.
The trick is to rehearse a bunch and don't fight the fear! Accept your fear as it is normal. To do otherwise will only create more tension between yourself and your fear and that exacerbates it.
From wikipedia: The teleprompter was operational, but an inexperienced operator accidentally fast-forwarded through the script, leaving Collins with no choice but to ad-lib most of his script.
You know, I'm sure he didn't want to throw anyone under the bus as a fill-in but he really should have apologized to the audience and just said we're having some technical difficulties with the teleprompter and at least saved himself a bit instead of reading every other line/word and sounding like a complete mess.
ccricers It's even funnier because he has no idea what team Reggie Miller is even on (or who he even is)... Come on. Indiana is basketball country... And he's a sports analyst.hahaha
SHADY3k He says "passes it to the man" haha. He has no clue who shoots the "boom goes the dynamite" shot! haha Also, he says "Chris Paul REBOUNDS out the list" haha
Despite the train wreck of the segment, he pressed ahead with the delivery of his catch phrase. Despite having apparently very little natural talent for it, he pressed on and became a reporter. This guy is a monument to determination. I actually admire the guy.
This guy is hardly the worst sports guy in the history of the world. It's the teleprompter guy that completely ruined this segment. This dude gets to go down in history for adding "boom goes the dynamite!" to the popular lexicon.
wasn't a panic attack per se (although I'm sure it turned into that lol) the actual story is that there was a glitch with the teleprompter (I think it was going too fast?) so he had a hard time saying everything he was supposed to.
The sports guy called in sick. Brian volunteered to do it. They gave him the script 30 seconds before they went live, and his teleprompter started malfunctioning and sped up faster than he could read. The irony is, that he had the print-out in front of him, but was too green to remember to use it. He got a lot of hate mail, but actually went into broadcasting and was pretty good at it.
After the worst experience of your life happens on TV and then goes on the internet, the only way he could really go was up. Smart guy with a steel pair to get back up there again
The first time I watched this I died laughing, then I got high and watched it again and realized how sad and devastating it was. The kid sounded so distraught when he was going over the baseball segment at the beginning, it sounded as if he felt he just blew his big chance. The fact that he was able to riff and improvise even a little was absolutely incredible, I would’ve straight up walked of the set on live tv if we’re in his shoes, so major props to him.
Lol. I was thinking the same thing. No way I’m making it thru 3 1/2 minutes of that. I’m surprised nobody came to the rescue. They let the poor guy suffer thru it all.
if i remember correctly, what happened was that the usual sportscaster got sick and with no one else to do it, they told this guy to do it. Like, with no preparations. I could be wrong tho.
This guy is like probably in his 30s now with kids. They run up to him with their phone. "Daddy is this you?" And he just walks away and heads toward the liquor stash and goes into his room and locks the door.
Yall, that was his first time ever, the person called off They told him to just read the screen and he will be okay. I believe the teleprompter fast forwarded the script and just went downhill from there Its all in the link i had posted

@@TheWaynelds Yeah, I am surprised they kept it going. It should have been clear to everyone that there was an issue. Either the teleprompter was screwed up or this guy was having a stroke.
hahaha I get your joke, but i like to think someone that doesn't know what you're talking about seeing that comment and just going, "Oh what the fuuu...."
He probably wasn't. Usually the sports anchor is in their own area, then walk to the table at the end. I think that's what he was doing after he said they were going to check out the scores.
+IceWarm I am pretty sure Travis was based on him. Just look at the profile of the two, they even made Travis look like Brian Boom Goes the Dynamite guy.
On-air wasn't his job. Besides, he was a student intern at the station. Most college towns have a TV affiliate where broadcast journalism students work at to hone their skills and get experience. Brian probably was asked 5 minutes before the broadcast to do this, and everything else went wrong. It's like every cardiovascular surgeon in a hospital is out and they need to perform an emergency surgery and ask the 23 year old medical technician to do it.
Let's be honest, we've all been there... Especially in english class. I'm friends with pretty much everyone in my english class and we talk, laugh and tell jokes but as soon as i walk up in front of everyone to do my english oral assessment i get nervous when i usually the funny confident guy in the group.
Yeah, but that's as a student. This guy's reading from the autocue and he's been given a job as a newsreader, you'd think he'd be a little more at ease.
Jacoby Phoenix ya exactly, one is as a student you have little choice. this guy CHOSE this profession. Why on earth would you choose a profession like this if you had a deathly fear of public speaking like this guy apparently has??
fyrestorme123 This was his first time ever doing this, as he was a sub. It didn't help that the prompter and auto-cue were broken, so everything he was supposed to say was going by way to fast.
But thanks to this guy, we have awesome jokes now....in a pick-up game you can just call out "he passes it to the man.." and then someone else will chime in boom goes the dynamite while everyone is laughing
Hello everyone. Well the Ball State softball team continued to play this weekend, and…they were hoping to continue off of their straight 3 out of 4 losses. And so we'll take a look and see how that happened. They started off good but then eventually but the Ball State women's ba - women's team shut down and ended up doing poorly. Oh no. Annnd ok we're gonna continue on now. The Ladies Cardinals will play in Iowa tournament starting this Friday. Before the Ball State baseball team kicks off its conference season this were - this weekend, the Cards will battle in instate rival Indiana tomorrow. Tomorrow's game will be the (pause) meeting between the two beating both..first…(sigh) (long silence) Hoosiers are on the four on (pause) on the year and they have won six of its last seven games tomorrow will be the game 3 at 3 pm. Which - switching to Ball State men's tennis - it seems last (pause) week player on it seems every week that you have a player (pause) (mouths "I'm so sorry.") Matt Lawrence is the latest Cardinals tennis player to win the award. Lamar won all this all the singles and doubles matches last week. So far the Cardinals have had a player honored on the we - on weekly awards seven out of the nine seven out of the nine weeks. The Cards will play at Boise State invite this weekend. The Indian - Indiana Pacers are looking for a measure - revenge tonight against the New Jersey Nets and to strengthen-their-playoff-hopes. The Nets won the last Sunday's matchup 94-85 which left the Pacers one game behind the Chicago in the seventh - series spot. Let's check out the highlights. Stephen Jackson's David…(pause) (sigh) Reggie Miller's lookin' good. He shoots the three…and it's good. Later he gets the rebound, passes it to the man, shoots it, and boom goes the dynamite. The final scores ended up with the Pacers' 63 to the Nets' 61. The Associated Press of the All-American first team in college ba-baseball was announced today at Utah 7-foot sophomore center Andrew Bo-got was the leading vote getting receiving 60 first place votes. Bo-got who is an Australian native received very little attention in the presentat - in the pr-preseason, but averaged 20 points and 12 rebounds a game for Utah. The four other players joining Bo-got on the AP team are senior forward Wayne Summers and Kansas - of Kansas, and Hack-en Warrick of Syracuse. Junior guard J.J. Redick of Duke and sophomore - and sophomore guard Chris Paul of Wake Forest rebounded out - the list. Let's check out some of the scores tonight.
That “oh no” is definitely where he realizes how utterly screwed he is. Like the last calms words of a pilot before he starts to go down and fight for control. Reggie Miller is when he accepts it and finds peace right at the end.
Dang it, I looked up this video just to go straight to the comments and say what you just said, but literally your comment was the first one to pop up.
Considering your username is "LeafyisQueer" I don't think calling someone unimaginative is something you're in any position to do. It would be like Shaq criticizing someone's free throw ability. Or William Shatner calling somebody a ham.
It always surprises me, every time I come back to this video, how he manages to grammatically bugger EVERY SINGLE SENTENCE. I’ve definitely experienced that kind of nervous lock-up before but for real, EVERY sentence got demolished lolllll
It was production team failure. It's clear he, the guy/gal feeding the script, and the video editor are not on the same page. This explains why guys like Bill O'Reilly and Chris Berman have footage of going ape shit. Because the screw up makes them look bad, while the behind scenes guys/gals don't get the humiliation/embarrassment.
I wouldn't blame more than half of this on the production team. I'd say it's more 75% this anchors fault. You can pretty much tell the correct wording is on the teleprompter much of the time and he's just mincing his words over and over and over again. Hahahaha soooo cringe worthy. Pure internet gold this is. Love it.
Well in O'Reilly's case, there was nothing wrong with the teleprompter. He literally just didn't like the script and threw a fit, saying things like "there's no words on there" out of pure anger even though there are words there.
Rikard Lund Few? I was laughing so much, my face was literally starting to hurt and I was so short on breath. I had to keep pausing the video so I wouldn't kill myself from lack of oxygen in my head. I cracked the fuck up from that. XD
Happened to me during a piano recital when I was a kid. Knew the piece really well going and could play it no problem. Got a few bars into it during the performance and just completely blanked. It was as if I had never touched a piano before. Couldn’t even finish the piece. Feel for this guy.
That happened to me too, i completely blanked and couldn’t even start over. I never did a recital again :( crazy to see your comment lol it brought back some memories 😅

I don’t have an anxiety disorder but I never performed again and the idea of being in front of an audience for anything- musical, professional, in a school setting- is PARALYZING.

Agreed 2:22 for anyone that wants to check it out
Or the fact he says “shoots the three” right before at a clear two-pointer.

Passin’ to the man every night and day
0:21 "Oh no"

Is related to Joe Biden.
To give context this guy was asked to sub because the normal guy was sick. The normal teleprompter guy was also out and as a result it was to fast.

And Boom Goes The Dynamite
My favorite part is the pained sigh followed by a solid 11 seconds of silence.
That was some professional silence from someone so young and inexperienced.
The way he says "yeah" at the end kills me... He is just incredibly flustered, and so happy it is all over.
+The Timster That's my favorite part too. Sounds like, "Yeah sure...I was great. So much for that"
And then he just stares at them.

It wasn't his job; he agreed to fill in for the regular newscaster who was ill. Bet that was the last time he agreed to fill in for anyone, ever.
That's what you get when you piss off the crew.

You know, I'm sure he didn't want to throw anyone under the bus as a fill-in but he really should have apologized to the audience and just said we're having some technical difficulties with the teleprompter and at least saved himself a bit instead of reading every other line/word and sounding like a complete mess.
3:37 I love that “yeahhh” after he thanks him. The way he said it perfectly sums up the broadcast lol.
Straight out of a movie lol
The cutscene at the end of the people jumping is a perfect way to finish it too.

@@TheWaynelds Yeah, I am surprised they kept it going. It should have been clear to everyone that there was an issue. Either the teleprompter was screwed up or this guy was having a stroke.
This is not pushing through . . .
The twist is he's actually reading exactly what's on the auto cue.
McSuperfly he freakin nailed it
McSuperfly he actually was but there were technical difficulties
hahahaha that was quite the good one fellow youtuber
I'm Ron Burgundy?
I've seen this so many times yet I've never noticed that at 2:23 he whispers "I hate myself right now." Lmao
Good catch thanks
noooooo 😂
And the “I’m so sorry”
Ohhh my word, you're right! I didn't notice that either until I read your comment.
Thanks for pointing that out!
2:23 you can hear him mumble: "God, I hate myself right now." 😂😅
Horrorlink nice catch 👍
I thought he said "god, I hate this line" right before the boom goes the dynamite line but I'm high af rn so idk.
Edit: sober me hears both
Never caught that before!
@TheNorthwood20 ???
Oh wow! Nice catch!
"passes it to the man"
utarian7 and boom goes the dynamite 😂
Backstroke of the west moment
Can you believe this golden video is now 14 years old
I can't decide if "passes it to the man" is gold or if he should have said "passes it to a man"
Ah, so we finally know who exactly has been keeping us down. Damn you, Reggie!
Look at all these grapes! Which terrible basketball player will pick them all up?
michael jordan
*****
Danny wins the basket ball,
Arin wins the... picking up the grapes game...
EVERYBODY WINS!
hahaha I get your joke, but i like to think someone that doesn't know what you're talking about seeing that comment and just going, "Oh what the fuuu...."
Hey I'm grump! I'm not so grump!! And we're the game grumps!!!
WHO'S GOT THE GRAPES?! I mean.... GRAPPLES!
“And Chris Paul rebounding out the list” is an overlooked pun that Brian slipped in there. Well played, sir.
I just piss my pants every time at the end when it is finally revealed that he was sitting right next to the anchors that whole time.
Me too!! I thought I was the only one who found that insanely hilarious!!!! 🤣
He probably wasn't. Usually the sports anchor is in their own area, then walk to the table at the end. I think that's what he was doing after he said they were going to check out the scores.
@@isaiahrosner3780 there is no chance this guy took a single step in this segment
Yes and the blank stare at 3:37 kills me. Lol.
@@callmeshaggy5166😂😂😂
This guy reminds me of the Diamond City Radio DJ in Fallout 4.
Travis. The best NPC in the game.
+IceWarm I am pretty sure Travis was based on him. Just look at the profile of the two, they even made Travis look like Brian Boom Goes the Dynamite guy.
This needs to be a mod.
maybe the sole survivor can help boost his confidence
+Adino1 Oh my god. He has to be!
The time that passed with this guy during this casting must of felt like an eternity
Abysmal Horrors
Don't get mad. You're probably not from the midwest.
Abysmal Horrors
I wasn't trying to be a dick, I was simply stating an educated guess based on the regional dialect.
"Must of" is wrong in any dialect.
Abysmal Horrors Why be an asshole? It's a fucking RUclips comment section, not an essay.
Right. Or at least put "must've"...
His co anchors ain't shit, they watched bro fall outta the boat, struggle, sink, and die.
Couldn’t agree more
Foreal they should have stepped in or cut the camera for technical difficulties
They don't call them "anchors" for nothing. Bro begging for a life preserver. . .
That moment you lied on your Resumé and still got the job
On-air wasn't his job. Besides, he was a student intern at the station. Most college towns have a TV affiliate where broadcast journalism students work at to hone their skills and get experience. Brian probably was asked 5 minutes before the broadcast to do this, and everything else went wrong.
It's like every cardiovascular surgeon in a hospital is out and they need to perform an emergency surgery and ask the 23 year old medical technician to do it.

That's rude. Why don't you read about the backstory of the incident before judging ?
@@curiouscat9 it’s a joke not meant to be taken any seriously lol, I’m fully aware of the backstory.
Let's be honest, we've all been there... Especially in english class. I'm friends with pretty much everyone in my english class and we talk, laugh and tell jokes but as soon as i walk up in front of everyone to do my english oral assessment i get nervous when i usually the funny confident guy in the group.
Yeah, but that's as a student. This guy's reading from the autocue and he's been given a job as a newsreader, you'd think he'd be a little more at ease.
Jacoby Phoenix
The autocue was broken.
Jacoby Phoenix he had to sub in for some other dude. this was his first time being on screen
Jacoby Phoenix ya exactly, one is as a student you have little choice. this guy CHOSE this profession. Why on earth would you choose a profession like this if you had a deathly fear of public speaking like this guy apparently has??
fyrestorme123
This was his first time ever doing this, as he was a sub. It didn't help that the prompter and auto-cue were broken, so everything he was supposed to say was going by way to fast.
This is the truest definition of second hand embarrassment,I've never felt more embarrassed for another human being ever in the history of my life.
But thanks to this guy, we have awesome jokes now....in a pick-up game you can just call out "he passes it to the man.." and then someone else will chime in boom goes the dynamite while everyone is laughing
@@KNR6292 yea I still die laughing every single time I watch star wars kid even though it ruined his life but damn if it ain't funny AF to me.
Hello everyone. Well the Ball State softball team continued to play this weekend, and…they were hoping to continue off of their straight 3 out of 4 losses. And so we'll take a look and see how that happened. They started off good but then eventually but the Ball State women's ba - women's team shut down and ended up doing poorly. Oh no. Annnd ok we're gonna continue on now.
The Ladies Cardinals will play in Iowa tournament starting this Friday. Before the Ball State baseball team kicks off its conference season this were - this weekend, the Cards will battle in instate rival Indiana tomorrow. Tomorrow's game will be the (pause) meeting between the two beating both..first…(sigh) (long silence)
Hoosiers are on the four on (pause) on the year and they have won six of its last seven games tomorrow will be the game 3 at 3 pm. Which - switching to Ball State men's tennis - it seems last (pause) week player on it seems every week that you have a player (pause) (mouths "I'm so sorry.")
Matt Lawrence is the latest Cardinals tennis player to win the award. Lamar won all this all the singles and doubles matches last week. So far the Cardinals have had a player honored on the we - on weekly awards seven out of the nine seven out of the nine weeks. The Cards will play at Boise State invite this weekend.
The Indian - Indiana Pacers are looking for a measure - revenge tonight against the New Jersey Nets and to strengthen-their-playoff-hopes. The Nets won the last Sunday's matchup 94-85 which left the Pacers one game behind the Chicago in the seventh - series spot. Let's check out the highlights.
Stephen Jackson's David…(pause) (sigh) Reggie Miller's lookin' good. He shoots the three…and it's good. Later he gets the rebound, passes it to the man, shoots it, and boom goes the dynamite. The final scores ended up with the Pacers' 63 to the Nets' 61.
The Associated Press of the All-American first team in college ba-baseball was announced today at Utah 7-foot sophomore center Andrew Bo-got was the leading vote getting receiving 60 first place votes. Bo-got who is an Australian native received very little attention in the presentat - in the pr-preseason, but averaged 20 points and 12 rebounds a game for Utah. The four other players joining Bo-got on the AP team are senior forward Wayne Summers and Kansas - of Kansas, and Hack-en Warrick of Syracuse. Junior guard J.J. Redick of Duke and sophomore - and sophomore guard Chris Paul of Wake Forest rebounded out - the list.
Let's check out some of the scores tonight.
+EMM1138 Bless you.
+3HaloODST yeah
Lmao so much respect for typing it out perfectly
Wow. You really did this. That makes me want to take a cheese grater to the back of a fresh block of cheese and put it on my tacos
The look to continue their 3 out of 4 losses lol
“Okay thanks a lot for that look into sports brian”
“Ya”
DONT look at my about
God i wish this guy actually was a sports broadcaster.... Honestly would make watching the news so much more entertaining...
I said the same thing! LOL
DaVinci Memes I would watch
Lol yes
He is
“Face your fears” they said
“What’s the worst that could happen?” They said
This!😂
Just follow the prompter, they said. It won't crap out on you, they said.
I'm envisioning this guy as having another kid below his trenchcoat like Vincent Adultman from Bojack Horseman.
Hahahahaha totally 🤣
He was just trying to do a business!
What are you talking about?
Vincent Adultman was a real grown up adult.
A kid wouldn't be trying to do a business!
Looool
I feel like I went through the 5 stages of grief while watching this.
That “oh no” is definitely where he realizes how utterly screwed he is. Like the last calms words of a pilot before he starts to go down and fight for control. Reggie Miller is when he accepts it and finds peace right at the end.
That’s one of the funniest responses I’ve ever heard!
3:38 his yeah gets me every time 😂😂
So funny. Like Dustin Hoffman in the graduate.
That is funny
@@tmac8892 thank you so much for that comment im laughing my ass off
That's like a Greg House yeah
lolololol
“Passes it to the man and boom goes the dynamite”. Classic.
I genuinely feel bad for this guy, he sounds so stressed.
Me too
He reminds me of Ross Geller from Friends.
LALFAST Yeah but with a less goofy haircut.
LALFAST Holy shit I see it. But was he on a break?
Dang it, I looked up this video just to go straight to the comments and say what you just said, but literally your comment was the first one to pop up.
Omg I love that show I smashed my window when it ended
Hehe. Good one
When you're dream job becomes your worst nightmare
Richard Weeks your
FredIsMyName22 jif
lol xD
Richard Weeks, your*
Say, for instance, your dream job is being an English teacher....
I love the way he says yeah at the end- you can hear such relief but sense of accomplishment. Good for him making it through!
Love the way he says 'yeah' at the end. Fine young man. This stuff is harder than it looks.
At 1:18 you can see him mouth the words “I’m so sorry.” I feel so bad for him.
2:16 "He shoots the three, aand its good"
*Its a 2 pointer xD
Give him a break man
This chain of 12 year olds is cringier than the actual video.
Y'all so petty, lmao
Considering your username is "LeafyisQueer" I don't think calling someone unimaginative is something you're in any position to do. It would be like Shaq criticizing someone's free throw ability. Or William Shatner calling somebody a ham.
lol u mad? Strike another pose, cupcake.
Honestly this is more entertaining than anything you’ll ever see on ESPN
Hey, he didn't quit- he tried to power on. Give him a break, another chance, a lot of practices, and maybe a pair of glasses. Good luck to him!
2nd hand embarrassment is real. Man I feel for this guy.
1:18...I'm so sorry. We all are, bro.
It always surprises me, every time I come back to this video, how he manages to grammatically bugger EVERY SINGLE SENTENCE. I’ve definitely experienced that kind of nervous lock-up before but for real, EVERY sentence got demolished lolllll
I feel bad for him. Poor guy
@@metalheadjake3339 yeah same same. Apparently there was a teleprompter issue with it going too fast. So, that didn’t help!
It was production team failure. It's clear he, the guy/gal feeding the script, and the video editor are not on the same page. This explains why guys like Bill O'Reilly and Chris Berman have footage of going ape shit. Because the screw up makes them look bad, while the behind scenes guys/gals don't get the humiliation/embarrassment.
+rohit puri Lol I would love if this guy was like "F&*$ IT, WE'LL DO IT LIVE!!!!"
+rohit puri True man, but still, his voice sounds something like a 6th grade project or 12 year old amateur youtuber!
look up web revenge by tosh.o about this guy
I wouldn't blame more than half of this on the production team. I'd say it's more 75% this anchors fault. You can pretty much tell the correct wording is on the teleprompter much of the time and he's just mincing his words over and over and over again. Hahahaha soooo cringe worthy. Pure internet gold this is. Love it.
Well in O'Reilly's case, there was nothing wrong with the teleprompter. He literally just didn't like the script and threw a fit, saying things like "there's no words on there" out of pure anger even though there are words there.
“Reggie Miller’s lookin’ good” “gets the rebound, passes it to THE MAN and it’s good”
James Lilla
“Later, he gets the rebound, passes it to the man, shoots it-and boom goes the dynamite!”
Thanks Dan. You make my dynamite go boom.
In my pants.
Oh baby.
Fuck yeah~
Game grumps what whattt~
Lets be honest, that episode kinda sucked.
Zach Farner I'm one of the few (apparently) that thought Arin's grape joke was really funny.
Rikard Lund Few? I was laughing so much, my face was literally starting to hurt and I was so short on breath. I had to keep pausing the video so I wouldn't kill myself from lack of oxygen in my head. I cracked the fuck up from that. XD
Passes it to "The Man".😅😂
Poor guy! ; A ;
he just didn't pick the grapes up off the ground.
+chesky goddamn it.
grumps?
Nice
GAME GRUMPS YA MAN
Heh
1:18 “im so sorry” aww poor guy
You know a video is legendary when it has its own wikipedia article
17 years have passed, and the Steam studio wanted me to see it right now....WOW
god his eyes just say 'please kill me'
I was 8 when you commented this, I graduated last Monday
2:07 Stephen Jackson.. ₛₜₑₚₕₑₙ
You wrote that perfectly LMAO
Made my night with that font 😂😂😂
This is the best comment in RUclips history
What a comment. Cheers mate.
"Ok great, thanks for that look into sports, Ryan."
*exasperated
"Yeah."
*all hope destroyed
Happened to me during a piano recital when I was a kid. Knew the piece really well going and could play it no problem. Got a few bars into it during the performance and just completely blanked. It was as if I had never touched a piano before. Couldn’t even finish the piece. Feel for this guy.
Exact same thing happened to me. Exactly the same. I developed severe anxiety disorder by my adulthood.
That happened to me too, i completely blanked and couldn’t even start over. I never did a recital again :( crazy to see your comment lol it brought back some memories 😅
@@calumjones ugh :(( I’m sorry to hear that. I don’t have an anxiety disorder but I never performed again and the idea of being in front of an audience for anything- musical, professional, in a school setting- is PARALYZING. My mind leaves the chat and my heart rate skyrockets. After the whole thing I just wanna cry. I hope you have found good support and ways to manage your anxiety. Happy new year :)
@@kwizatzhannahrach id give it a shot again. Life is too short. Its better to try redemption then regret not going for it when its too late. I dont know ya but I believe in ya. Redeem yourself.
@@kwizatzhannahrachI'm with PICFL1.
If yo look closely, you can see what appears to be a bunch of grapes on the ground.
Liked for GameGrumps
Hhahah lol game grumps!!!
I think I can see the grapes... oh yup I found them.
Welp, didn't expect to see this here.
hold on wait... deres a grape on de ground
I was impressed by the way he got the rebound and passed it to the man.
I can relate to this.
Horrible flashbacks to a speech I gave at my friends wedding to the point that I can't watch this.
Same but except with a speech in class
Haha is it on video? Maybe you can post it on here
same speech for a scholarship in front og 50 people and an interview omg
18 years later...A water bottle shot into the garbage can, followed by a "boom goes the dynamite" reference, and here we are. Hasnt aged a day. Forever Legendary
2:19
...shoots the 3!
*literally doesn't*
Randyy1 also it wasn’t Reggie Miller 😂
@Tucker Johnson Umm no I'd agree that the player "literally" didn't shoot the 3
Legends never die make sure you pass it to the man
As funny as this video is, I couldn't help but feel at least a little bad for the guy. Especially when he mouths "I'm so sorry."
I'm honored to be an Indianapolis native. It's great that "the" original viral internet moment was the Pacers scoring a 3 ptr.
I love how confidently he says "94-85" and then how quickly it again turns to shambles right after
This detail hurts me a lot when watching. You get a sense of what *could* have been and then its ripped away within seconds.
Lmao 0:21 ....when he realised things weren't going to go to plan
Aztecius lmao "oh no"
Aztecius OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Aztecius it was at this very moment when he knew he fucked up
It sounds like he was getting feedback and hearing himself on a delay.
At that point I would've just said "Sorry I can't do this" and got up and left
